afternoon.
Commercial Securities Club.
Zuo Lan was busy in military uniform.
Director Deng is preparing to go to Peiping, and the military transfer meeting here is about to end.
"Zuo Lan, have you been to Baohe Hall?" Director Deng asked.
"Baohe Hall? I've never been there," Zuo Lan said. Baohetang is Yu Zecheng's medicine shop. She actually wanted to visit it, but she has been very busy and has no time.
"Zuo Lan, I went to Baohe Hall. Look, this is the medicine I bought." Director Deng held two packages of medicine in his hand, one with an ordinary package and the other with a very exquisite package.
"Director, the packaging of these two packages of medicine looks very different."
"Yes, the packaging is different and the price is also very different, but the medicinal materials inside are exactly the same." Director Deng said with a smile.
"Huh? The medicine inside is the same? Then why are the packaging and prices different?"
"Zuo Lan, this beautifully packaged medicine is sold at a high price, with a profit of more than ten times. This ordinary packaged medicine is basically at cost price and makes no money. Do you understand?" Director Deng said with a smile.
"Director, are you saying that Baohetang only makes money from rich people when selling medicines, and only charges cost price for people who have no money?" Zuo Lan asked.
"Yeah, it's quite interesting what they do. Most of our traditional Chinese medicine doctors are very kind. They treat the rich without charging a price, and they treat the poor without charging any money." Director Deng said with a smile.
"Director, Western medicine is not like this. They treat everyone equally and charge very high fees." Zuo Lan said.
"Zuo Lan, there is something fishy about the fees charged by Western medicine. They charge the rich and powerful less, but they charge ordinary people unscrupulously. It's basically the other way around." Director Deng shook his head. He has no good opinion of Western medicine. He believes that Western medicine is designed to prey on people at the lowest level, but does not dare to mess with people at the top.
"Director, Western medicine exploits the lower class people more thoroughly," Zuo Lan said.
"Yes, this kind of Western medicine completely violates medical ethics. Doctors originally wanted to treat diseases and save people. Western medicine has changed this original intention. A hospital only cares about making money. It is a shame that such hospitals are still everywhere." Director Deng said. He was helpless, he didn't want to see this happen, but there was nothing he could do.
"Director, maybe it will be fine in the future." Zuo Lan said. Little did she know that the situation would be even worse in the future. Some medicines that could cure diseases were abandoned, and medicines that could cure people half-dead became popular all over the world. This is true even for many traditional Chinese medicine doctors. They make money wantonly, which completely violates the original intention of treating diseases and saving people, and has no medical ethics at all.
"I hope so, otherwise, our sacrifice will be worthless." Director Deng said.
"Director, are you going to Peking?" Zuo Lan asked.
"Yes, go to Peiping. Zuo Lan, send the memorandum to the ugly army representative tomorrow." Director Deng ordered. He looked tired. He had had too many meetings, large and small, these days, and they were all just nonsense with no real content. He very much hopes for peace, but the other party has been actively preparing for war, which makes him very powerless.
"Okay, Director."
"Zuo Lan, we will evacuate here immediately, but we are still continuing over there in Peking. They may have to transfer you there." Director Deng reminded.
"I know, Director, I will wait for notification at any time."
"About two or three days. By the way, Zuo Lan, the documents to be destroyed must be checked again and again." Director Deng always pays attention to everything, cares about everything, and patiently advises.
"Okay, director, I'll check right away."
"Zuo Lan, the aftermath work is very complicated, so you have to be careful."
"Don't worry, I will do a good job."
"Okay, Zuo Lan, see you in Peiping." Director Deng shook hands with Zuo Lan and said goodbye. He came with high hopes, but left disappointed.
After sending Director Deng away, Zuo Lan returned to the room and started destroying documents.
"Report." At this time, a soldier came.
The soldier whispered a few words to Zuo Lan.
Zuo Lan looked surprised and said, "Impossible." The soldier said that Yu Zecheng was here and was waiting outside to come in. She didn't believe that Yu Zecheng would come openly and openly, but that Yu Zecheng would only come secretly at night. He is a heart thief.
"Right at the door." The soldier said.
"Bring him in." Zuo Lan remembered Yu Zecheng's words last night and became alert.
"Yes." The soldier took the order and went out.
After a while.
Yu Zecheng came over.
"Hello, please come in." The guard said politely.
"Hello, Representative Zuo." Yu Zecheng looked businesslike.
As soon as Zuo Lan saw Yu Zecheng's look, she knew something was up. She didn't show too close to him, she just shook hands with Yu Zecheng and said "Hello."
"Representative Zuo, I have something to discuss with you privately, don't you know...?" Yu Zecheng said while looking at the guards on the left and right.
"Then, please sit down." Zuo Lan motioned for Yu Zecheng to come in, and then asked the guards to leave.
"Zecheng, why are you here?" Zuo Lan looked around and asked hurriedly.
"Lan, this is Li Ya's conspiracy. I expect a call will come in later. After you answer the call, be careful to avoid me." Yu Zecheng said.
"Phone? What phone?" Zuo Lan still didn't quite understand.
"It's the kind of phone call I said last night. It might be from Tang Simao, or it might be from someone else. Anyway, it's to trick you out, set a trap to catch you, and then force you to question your conversation with me. , once the content of our conversation does not match, they will attack me." Yu Zecheng said. What he was talking about was the plot in the TV series, and it should be similar to what it is today.
"So insidious? This Li Ya is a powerful character. He really shouldn't be let go." Zuo Lan said.
"Lan, this is the content of our conversation today." Yu Zecheng took out a piece of paper and handed it to Zuo Lan, "If anyone asks me what I did here and what I said, just tell me what's on it. .”
"Zecheng, do you suspect there is a spy here?" Zuo Lan asked. She looked surprised.
"Lan, I don't know if you have spies here, but we must make all preparations to minimize the danger." Yu Zecheng said.
"Understood, it works. You have thought carefully." Zuo Lan said.
"Lan, when someone calls you later and asks you to go out, you hold the person back first. Don't agree or refuse." Yu Zecheng said.
"Okay, that's it. I want to see what tricks they will come up with." Zuo Lan said.
"Lan, actually I don't have to come, but I haven't been here during the day, so I just want to come and have a good chat with you." Yu Zecheng said with a smile. He hid in the corner and hugged Zuo Lan.
"Zhencheng, it can't be like this."
After a while.
"Ding, ding, ding," the phone rang.
"Lan, remember, you have to pause and give me time to avoid." Yu Zecheng warned.
Zuo Lan nodded and picked up the phone.
"Hello, yes, this is it."
"What? Who are you? I didn't hear you clearly. Please repeat it."
"Please repeat it again." Zuo Lan deliberately asked the other party to repeat it twice, and she paused deliberately in the middle. This time is enough for Yu Zecheng to avoid it.
"Sorry, I'm busy right now. Please call back later." Zuo Lan hung up the phone. She hung up the phone without saying anything more to the other party.
"Whose phone number is it?" Yu Zecheng asked hurriedly.
"She said she was Ma Kui's wife Zhou Gendi. She had information she wanted to sell to us, and she wanted to schedule an interview with me about Tang Simao," Zuo Lan said.
"Ma Kui's wife? She has gone to the Magic City, and Tang Simao has become a traitor. This must be a trap," Yu Zecheng said.
"Then I'll just refuse to meet." Zuo Lan said.
"No, Lan, if you refuse directly, you will take advantage of Li Ya, a thief. We have to find a way to teach Li Ya a lesson." Yu Zecheng narrowed his eyes, his cunning eyes revealed.
His mind turned around, and a trick came to mind.
"Lan, wait a minute she's calling, just do this..." Yu Zecheng came up with a bad idea that would make Li Ya have a good drink.
"Zecheng, you are so bad. Li Ya will not be able to eat it and carry it around." Zuo Lan smiled in Yu Zecheng's arms. She was hugged by Yu Zecheng again.
"Lan, I have to leave now. Remember that you drove me away." Yu Zecheng lowered his head and kissed Zuo Lan goodbye.
"OK."
"Lan, I'll come back in the evening." Yu Zecheng left calmly.
